50% Teen Discount on BART starting January 1, 2018 with Clipper

If you have a child 13-18 that regularly rides Bart or VTA, get a Youth Clipper card for a 50% discount on your BART rides. For a round trip 19th Street Oakland to Fruitvale journey, for example, the non-discounted fare for a teen now would be $3.90. When the Clipper Youth discount goes into effect, that teen would pay only $1.95 for the same ride.

Parents can fill out an application on line, but I suggest going to a physical location (with the I.D. or other documents) and getting the card in person. If you order the card online, you will have to submit a copy of the documentation by mail – and you don’t want to send a copy of a birth certificate or ID via mail.

Bart Fares will increase in January 2018, including a surcharge for using paper tickets, so adults might want to take a look at getting a Clipper Card also. Source Bart.gov.
